History
Since its inception in 1963, Ivy Tech State
College has evolved from a small, post-secondary
vocational school providing specialized workforce
training, to a community college system with
sophisticated, high-tech course offerings. Now the
third largest public higher education institution in
Indiana, Ivy Tech serves more than 62,000 stu-
dents per year statewide through its 23 -campus
system.
In 1963, Indiana Vocational Technical College
was created by the Indiana General Assembly,
with the support of the Indiana AFL-CIO, Indiana
Farm Bureau and the state Chamber of
Commerce. When college planners determined
that occupational education and training needs
differed around the state, the General Assembly
approved the formation of 13 administrative
regions to effectively serve the needs of each
area. These regions were chartered between 1966
and 1969.
The Central Indiana Region was created to serve
residents of Marion, Morgan, Hancock, Johnson,
Shelby, Boone, Hendricks, and Hamilton coun-
ties. Classes were first offered at a rented facility
in what is now Indianapolis International Airport
in 1966. That first year, the fledgling campus
enrolled 367 students in three technical programs.
In 1983, the main campus moved to the former
American United Life building at the corner of
Fall Creek and Meridian, where enrollment has
continued to rise. By fall 2001, the campus was
serving more than 10,000 students in 22 degree
programs.
In 1995, the college's name was changed from
Indiana Vocational Technical College to Ivy Tech
State College, reflecting a metamorphosis within
the institution.
Colleges and Schools. In addition, the transfer-
ability of Ivy Tech credits continues to expand.
Credits for many individual courses and several
two-year degrees may now be transferred to other
four-year colleges and universities and count
toward a baccalaureate degree.
Over the years, the nature of Ivy Tech's instruc-
tional offerings has changed to meet the demands
of the Indiana workforce. Formerly known for its
vocational training, the college now offers
degrees in many fast-growing, high-tech fields,
for which Ivy Tech graduates are sought out by
employers.
The college now provides more information tech-
nology training and produces more practical nurs-
es than any other college in Indiana. Ivy Tech
graduates work in fields ranging from respiratory
therapy and computer-aided design to public safe-
ty and visual communications.
Offering Hoosiers a wider array of educational
options is the reason for the latest big change at
Ivy Tech State College. Beginning in fall 2000,
partners Ivy Tech and Vincennes University
formed the Community College of Indiana (CCI),
adding liberal arts courses and associate of art
degrees at Ivy Tech's Indianapolis campus. Over
the next several years, the Community College of
Indiana will expand to all 23 Ivy Tech State
College campuses.
Ivy Tech incorporated a number of changes,
which allowed the college to gain statewide
accreditation by the North Central Association of

CCI programs are designed to meet the needs of the student
population, accommodating those who wish to enroll in a
few classes as well as those who prefer a full program.
Credit programs normally culminate in the Associate of
Science degree, the Associate of Applied Science degree,
the Associate of Arts, the Technical Certificate, or the
Career Development Certificate. The three instructional
divisions are Business and General Education, Health and
Public Services, and Technology.
Associate of Applied Science (AAS)
Degree
Associate of Applied Science degree programs prepare stu-
dents for career mobility within occupational clusters. The
programs offer education in recognized specialties with
emphasis on analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. The pro-
gram content, which is approximately 75 percent technical
and 25 percent general education, provides both depth and
breadth in conceptual and manipulative skills. The general
education courses, offered in the areas of communications,
humanities, mathematics, life and physical sciences, and
social sciences, equip students with the life skills they need
to be fully functioning, contributing members of society.
Ask for details from the Admissions Office staff on transfer
opportunities.
Associate of Science (AS) Degree
Associate of Science degree programs prepare students for
careers and also enable students who have an interest and
ability to transfer Ivy Tech or VU credits to cooperating
four-year institutions. These programs emphasize cognitive
skills intended as pre-baccalaureate study and provide
courses equivalent to those prescribed in the lower division
of the receiving four-year college or university.
Associate of Arts (AA) Degree
The Associate of Arts programs prepare students to com-
municate well, adapt to social and economic change, func-
tion as team players, analyze issues, and solve problems.
This program provides a solid foundation for continued
study. Liberal arts is also a favorite choice for students who
plan advanced study in medicine, law, or business. The
program has been fully articulated with all Indiana four-
year colleges.
Technical Certificate (TC)
The Technical Certificate programs provide training in con-
ceptual and manipulative skills for specific occupations.
Each program contains a sequence of required courses in a
recognized specialty within one of the technologies taught
at the college. The program content is designed to develop
competency in the comprehension of general and technical
skills in that specialty.
Career Development Certificates
(CDC)
Ivy Tech provides short-term programs for individuals who
desire to develop competencies in a specific area. These
programs are less than 32 semester credits in length.
Instruction is delivered through methods that include regu-
lar courses and specifically-designed courses. Many of
these courses are based on a sequence of learning experi-
ences determined by a certifying state or national associa-
tion or organization. Completion of certain short-term pro-
grams qualifies students to sit for certification examina-
tions. The number and types of short-term programs vary.
Foundation for Academic Programs
Ivy Tech offers a foundation of academic courses to assist
students in successfully accomplishing their educational
goals.
In addition to foundation courses in mathematics and study
skills, available services include academic assessment,
career assessment and counseling, tutoring, and other aca-
demic assistance. The need for these services may be iden-
tified at the time of admissions, or a student may access
services upon encountering academic difficulty during a
course of study. Instructors and laboratory technicians pro-
vide supplemental instruction in math, English, science, and
study skills. Ivy Tech students preparing for the GED
examination may take a practice test and receive academic
counseling.
Weekend College
Weekend College is Ivy Tech 's way of providing an educa-
tional opportunity to individuals who are unable to attend
during regular weekday or evening hours.
Weekend College offers a wide selection of credit courses
and continuing education programs.

Business Administration
Specialties:
Management
Marketing
The Business Administration Program gives graduates the broad background they need for general
administrative positions in a variety of business environments. It also provides an opportunity for spe-
cialization. A student in the Business Administration Program may specialize in management or mar-
keting.
Substitutions in the Business Administration Program are allowed when approved by the program
chair. Normally, substitutions are granted in the Regional Core of the program. This practice is allowed
to help students who feel their career goals are enhanced by taking different electives than recommend-
ed. It is also necessary to allow transfer students some latitude to complete their degree as long as the
General Education and State Technical Core are satisfied.

There is no single course of study for pre-law majors. Law schools generally desire superior students who
have completed a liberal arts program, but a large number of law students come from schools of business.
Political science provides a good major, and business, history, English, mathematics, psychology,
philosophy and economics are good minors. The program below is essentially a liberal arts curriculum.

CO-HORT
The Machine Tool Technology program is designed to prepare students for the metals manufacturing
industry. Graduates from this program are employed as skilled machinists, CNC operators, program-
mers or tool and die makers. The curriculum offers a systematic approach to developing skills in
milling, turning, precision grinding and CNC programming and machining. In addition to the techni-
cal subject in machining, proficiency in mathematics, communication, physics and basic computer
skills is required.
CD
The program offers two unique ways to obtain an A.A.S. in Machine Tool Technology. The tradition-
al path allows the student to take prescribed courses when individual schedules and offered courses
coincide. This type of program is important for students who work during the day. The second path
offers a CO-HORT approach where students enroll full time during the day and finish their degree in
four consecutive semesters. This path of instruction is more rigorous in terms of the time on task in
the laboratories. The CO-HORT student will invest over 2000 hours in the instructional program lead-
ing to an Associate in Applied Science degree. The CO-HORT program was developed to the specifi-
cations of the Indianapolis Chapter of the National Tooling and Machine Association (NTMA). The
program uses books and materials recommended by NTMA.

Medical Assisting Admissions Procedure
In order to be admitted to the Medical Assisting Program, you MUST meet the following conditions:
Step 1 See the health counselor in admissions to begin the process of being admitted to Ivy Tech.
Step 2 Based on your placement testing you must complete any basic skills courses that you are required to take.
This includes
Reading Writing Math
ENG 03 1 ENG 024 See Step 3
ENG 032 ENG 025
Step 3 ALL Medical Assisting students MUST complete MAT 044 BEFORE taking any MEA courses (if your testing indi-
cates this). AAS students may take MAT 050 before OR during the first semester of the program (if your testing indicates
this).
Step 4 Students are strongly advised to take BIO 065 for the following situations:
*you have never taken a science class before or you don't like science
*you only took one science class in high school
*you have failed a previous science class
*you have been out of school for more than 5 years
Please note that BIO 065 is NOT REQUIRED. You do NOT HAVE to take it. If you choose to take it, the credits DO
NOT count toward the Medical Assisting certificate or degree. It is a refresher course ONLY to HELP to PREPARE stu-
dents for ANP I and ANP II as these are difficult courses.
In summary, you MUST complete ALL BASIC SKILLS courses that you are required to take or are choosing to take
BEFORE you are admitted to the Medical Assisting program and BEFORE you may begin taking MEA courses! Again,
these courses include:
ENG 024
ENG 025
ENG 031
ENG 032
MAT 044
MAT 050. ...may be taken in the first semester of the AAS program
BIO 065 if you choose to take it.. .must be done prior to ANP I
These 3 HHS courses may be taken with the basic skills if you choose courses prior to program admission if you choose:
HHS 101 Medical Terminology
HHS 105 Medical Law and Ethics
MEA 102 First Aid/CPR
Step 5 All Medical Assisting candidates MUST complete ANP 101 with a C or better no later than the first semester of the
program. All Basic Skills courses must be completed before taking ANP 101. When you are ready to register for ANP 101
you will register with the program chair. Please make an appointment with the program chair during EARLY REGISTRA-
TION for the semester you wish to take ANP 101. If you do not do this during early registration, you will probably NOT
get into an ANP 101 section of your choosing as they close quickly. This could delay your program admission one semes-
ter. You will be registered, complete a letter of intent for program admission and take the typing test at this time. All stu-
dents must have a C or better in ALL coursework to be admitted to the program. This program does not have competitive
entry. If you have met all of the above requirements you WILL be admitted to the program. You may begin in any semes-
ter. Once you begin taking MEA courses your registration for future semesters will be handled during one of your MEA
courses.
Once you have completed steps 1-5 you will need to make an appointment with the program chair-Lori Andrews- at 921-
4589. This should be done during EARLY REGISTRATION of the semester you are taking ANP 101. (The semester fol-
lowing step 5) During this appointment with the program chair you will "map out" a timeline for taking all of your MEA
courses through graduation. You will find out when you will graduate (if you complete all of the courses as scheduled) and
when you will take the CMA exam. You will also be given a brief overview of the program with information about uni-
forms, costs, clinical assignments and courses in the program.

Qualified Medicine Aide (ADP 806)
Nurse Aide Procedures and Practicum Course (ADP 805)
Phlebotomy (MEA212)
Nurse Aide
Nurse Aide Procedures and Practicum is a three-credit course which lasts for eight weeks. Students are
in class four hours per week for eight weeks. After 16 hours of class, they also go to nursing homes to f^
complete a 75-hour practicum. This is arranged with an assigned nursing home. At the end of the
eight-week course and the 75-hour practicum, the students take the state-approved final examination
with a state testing agency. A certificate is awarded, and the students' information is submitted to the
Indiana State Department of Health. Students must attend all classes.
Qualified students must be able to read, write, and do simple math problems, and be able to do the
physical work required of a nurse aide. A physical examination will be required and must be complet-
ed before starting practicum. Students must furnish a uniform. Payment must be made when regis-
tering.
For dates and times, see the Community College of Indiana - Central Indiana class schedule.
Qualified Medicine Aide Hi
Qualified Medicine Aide (QMA) is a four-credit course offered three hours a week for 16 weeks.
Students are required to complete a 20-hour practicum, or hands-on work experience in an extended
care facility (nursing home) after completing the classroom work. The student is expected to be
employed by a facility that will allow them to do the 20-hour practicum. After successfully completing
the course, the student is eligible to sit for the State Examination, which costs $20 and is arranged with
Professional Resources.
In the first week of class, applicants must bring their high school diploma or GED scores, demonstrate
that they are currently on the Indiana State Nurse Aid Registry, and have documentation on letterhead
of three months experience as a CNA in a long-term care facility.
For dates and times, see the Community College of Indiana - Central Indiana class schedule. CS

Phlebotomy (MEA212)
Twenty seats are available in each class. All classes are held
in North Meridian Center Room 534. This three-credit-
hour course includes lecture over the circulatory system
and the proper technique to draw blood from patients as
well as safety measures to protect yourself and the patient.
Students will practice venipuncture on the artificial arm
several times to acquire the appropriate skills. All stu-
dents are also expected to be a "patient" and allow fel-
low classmates to draw blood from them as a vital ele-
ment of this course. Students are asked to contact the
instructor if they have a valid medical reason why they
cannot have their blood drawn. It is recommended stu-
dents have a high school diploma or GED. Students must
be 18 years of age.
Attendance
A considerable amount of information is presented in each
class meeting. Due to the large percentage of hands-on
skills, attendance is strictly monitored.
Supplies
Students can find the required text in the Ivy Tech
Bookstore. Students also are required to wear a lab
jacket/coat in the classroom.

To register
1. Complete a registration form. See enclosed dates for reg-
istration. Select the course section (day and time) you
prefer.
2. An advisor signs the registration form.
3. Payment must be made at time of registration.
The Community College of Indiana does not guarantee
employment after training, but you may use the Career and
Employment Services office to apply for a job. The average
pay for phlebotomists (those who draw blood samples from
patients in labs or hospitals) ranges from $8 to $10 and up
per hour, depending upon the shift hours and type of facility
(office, lab, hospital).
This course DOES NOT make you eligible for certification
as a phlebotomist. A national certification test requires you
show proof of a specific number and type of venipunctures.
Your instructor can provide you with information about
achieving national certification. At present, the college is
able to provide clinical rotation for this course on a limited
basis.
Many students take this course because they hope to be
employed in a health care facility to draw blood. Presently,
most hospitals are not hiring basic phlebotomists; they are
retraining existing personnel to draw blood. This is due to
the current budget curtailments in all health facilities. We
urge all health
students to take this course as part of their training to be
prepared for entering many different employment situations.
Nurses especially can benefit from taking this course.
Employers sometimes hire graduates of this course without
demanding extensive experience. The Regional Blood
Center and many of the plasma centers may hire persons
familiar with venipunture. Insurance companies need per-
sons to visit the homes of clients to obtain blood samples
for screening; home health agencies may also employ phle-
botomists to obtain samples from home-bound patients who
need frequent blood tests.
The college wants you to be aware of the current employ-
ment opportunities before you decide to enroll in this
course.
Placement
For more information on these classes, contact Lana Anderson at 921-4561 or ljanders@ivytech.edu.

Introduction
This information introduces you to the Associate in Science in Nursing (ASN) Program at Ivy Tech State College in
Indianapolis. As the year 2000 marked the beginning of a new millennium, so the turn of the century heralds a new era for
the Indianapolis campus of Ivy Tech State College. The Indianapolis campus received its charter on June 20, 1967.
Classes were first offered in 1968. Enrollment growth has been consistently positive with headcount reaching approxi-
mately 11,000 for the 2001-2002 school year.
History
The Central Indiana campus of Ivy Tech State College (formerly Indiana Vocational Technical College) was approved for a
generic/traditional Associate of Science in Nursing Program in February of 1991. The Indiana State Board of Nursing
approved the program in June 1991. This nursing program, which is strongly supported by all of the hospitals and extend-
ed care facilities in the geographic region, offers a nursing curriculum at the registered nurse level to non-nurses and
advanced placement for licensed practical nurses who desire to further their nursing education.
Purpose
The purpose of the program is to provide associate degree nursing education for the non-nurse and career mobility for the
LPN. Upon successful completion of the program, the graduate is eligible to apply to take the NCLEX-RN examination
which is required to obtain state licensure as a registered nurse.
The faculty believe education of associate degree nurses should be placed in institutions of higher learning. While the the-
oretical component of nursing education takes place at the college, clinical practice, an essential part of nursing education,
takes place in the health care setting under the supervision and direction of professional nurse educators. Nursing students
have the educational opportunities and auxiliary services of the college offered to all members of the student body.
Teaching Facilities
All facilities and resources of Ivy Tech State College in Indianapolis are available to nursing students. Students make use
of the college library, the open computer lab, the Learning Resource Center, student services, and other academic services.
All courses are taught by faculty with advanced degrees in the appropriate fields of study
102
Associate of Science in Nursing
Clinical Facilities
Clinical experience is an integral part of the educational experience for all nursing students. The ASN program has affili-
ation agreements with a wide range of agencies to provide student-learning experiences. Agencies utilized include but are
not limited to Clarian Health Partners, Inc., St. Francis Hospitals, Wishard Memorial Hospital, VA Hospital, Winona
Memorial Hospital, Kindred Care Hospital, St. Vincent's Hospitals, Brownsburg Nursing Home and Lockfield Village.

Disability Services Information
Students who request accommodations are expected to participate in an intake interview with Disability Services if request-
ing specific services, academic adjustments or other accommodations for a disability. Prospective students should schedule
an intake interview prior to attempting any part of the admission process if accommodations will be required for the infor-
mation session, academic assessment, completing forms or scheduling classes. The intake process, including intake inter-
view and documentation on file, should be completed at least one month prior to the need for accommodations.
Documentation of the disability must be on file with the Disability Services office prior to services being provided. Late
requests may delay accommodations. In accordance with the above procedure, federal guidelines and respect for individual
privacy, no action will be taken without a specific request.
If you would like more information about the Disabled Student Development program at Ivy Tech State College in
Indianapolis or would like to schedule an appointment for an intake interview, please contact Special Needs at 921-4982.
All students are expected to meet entry requirements. Essential elements of courses and programs and licensing require-

Readmission to the Program
If a student is dismissed from any campus/region of Ivy Tech State College, that individual is dismissed from the college.
A. For violations of the college rules of conduct: The year starts at the time/date of the official
notification to the student by the chief administrative officer. After one calendar year, the
individual under suspension may apply for reinstatement. If the student is dismissed, the
student may appeal for reinstatement after five years.
The individual must begin the reinstatement appeal process by informing the chief student
affairs officer at the campus where the dismissal took place of her/his intentions. The
appeal for reinstatement may be applied for at any campus/region of Ivy Tech where the
individual hopes to attend. The campus/region Student Status Committee will act on the
appeal within thirty (30) days of its receipt. The recommendation of the Student Status
Committee will be forwarded to the chief administrative officer of the campus/region. That
individual will render a judgment on the appeal. That judgment will be final. (9.1 SAP -
STUDENT RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES)
B. For failure to meet and maintain academic standards: A student who fails to maintain
satisfactory academic progress will be subject to a series of intervention activities and
related restrictions until such time as he/she restores satisfactory progress or is dismissed
as a degree/certificate seeking student due to repeated unsatisfactory progress.
1 . A student who is dismissed from the NUR program for unsatisfactory academic
progress faces one term of non-enrollment as a certificate or degree declared student
prior to resuming progress toward that certificate or degree, at which time re-enrollment Ml
is allowed on a probationary status.
2. A student who is dismissed twice for unsatisfactory academic progress will be
terminated for up to five years as a degree or certificate declared student unless he/she
chooses to participate in an extensive Basic Skills Advancement program to correct
academic deficiencies.
3. Petition for readmission must be initiated at the campus where dismissal occurred via
the Academic Status Committee. (4.3APPM-DEGREE REQUTREMENTS/GRADUATION)
The following criteria will be utilized for readmission
a. There must be space available.
b. If the number of applicants for readmission exceeds clinical space availability,
selection will be based on the earliest date of written application for
readmission.
c. A readmitted student is subject to the curriculum guidelines and program policies
in effect at the time of readmission.
C. For reasons of illness: If a student who is otherwise in good standing has to drop out of a
program for one semester because of well-documented health reasons, that student will be
allowed to repeat the course(s) without penalty and that student will not be considered a
readmit when he/she returns to the program.

Transfer
The college encourages articulation between programs offered at each campus and similar programs offered at secondary or
post-secondary levels. To ensure that articulation between programs at the high school level and Ivy Tech and between Ivy
Tech and four-year institutions is established on a permanent and educationally sound foundation, formal written articula-
tion agreements with secondary and/or post-secondary institutions must be developed.
Local articulation agreements between Ivy Tech campuses and post-secondary institutions and statewide post-secondary
articulation agreements should include a statement listing all conditions under which the courses or degree programs trans-
fer. (6.3 APPM-CREDIT TRANSFER/AWARDING)
The Registrar will accept in transfer any course appearing on the SIS+ transfer list. For courses not appearing on SIS+,
recommendations for transfer of credit are made by the Department/Program head. Credits to be considered for transfer
must have been earned at a post-secondary institution accredited by a regional accrediting board, and the student must have
earned a grade of "C" or better in the course(s) involved. Grades below C- do not transfer. Transferred credit is included
in earned hours, but does not affect the grade point average. Final authority for transfer credit rests with the chief academic
officer. Credits taken more than 10 years prior must be reviewed by the chief academic officer if applied to a degree or
certificate objective.
This policy applies to credits accepted in transfer from another institution and to credits taken at Ivy Tech prior to declaring
the new degree or certificate objective to which the credits may apply (4.2APPM-GRADING POLICIES).
Transfer is on a space available basis.
Movement within the Ivy Tech system
Movement within the Ivy Tech State system is based on the following:
a. Clinical space availability
b. Written request by the student indicating the desire to complete his/her studies at another campus
c. Good academic standing with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher
The student is held harmless in the transfer of co-requisite credit of the General Education courses required region-to-
region.

It is recommended that the four total GTS courses be taken and passed before entering the program. These
courses are HEW 101, APS 142, ANP 101, and ANP 102. The PSB must be taken and passed with a score of
25 or above in all areas to be considered for admission. If the student has a GPA, it must be above a 2.00. The
total net scores of the PSB testing are compiled to rank order the students. The students with the highest net
scores are accepted first.

Nature of Work
Licensed practical nurses work under the direction of physicians and registered nurses. In hospitals, licensed
practical nurses provide much of the bedside care. They provide nursing care under the direction of the nurse
and/or physician. Licensed practical nurses can work in private homes providing day-to-day care. In addition
to providing nursing care, they may prepare meals and see that patients are comfortable. Such nurses work for
an agency.
In doctors offices and in clinics, licensed practical nurses prepare patients for examination and treatment,
administer medications, apply dressings, and teach patients prescribed health care regimens, make appointments
and record information about patients.
Working Conditions
Licensed practical nurses work any shift with wide variations in schedules.
Employment
Opportunities include hospitals, nursing homes, rehabilitation centers, psychiatric hospitals, and other long-term
care facilities as well as clinics or doctors offices.

tical nurse in Indiana after successful completion of the program.
To be eligible for admission into the Practical Nursing Program
1. ANP 101 must be completed prior to admission and ANP 102 also may be taken before entering the
Practical Nursing Program. These courses are either co-requisites or prerequisites to all practical nursing
courses. ANP 101 must be completed before entering the program. ANP 102 can be taken in the first
semester with PN courses. It is strongly recommended that ANP 102 be completed before admission to
the program.
2. A. Complete an application form to Ivy Tech.
B. Submit an official copy of high school transcript or GED.
C. Submit an official copy of transcript from previous colleges if student wishes to transfer credits.
3. Take the Ivy Tech State College ASSET Test to evaluate entry skills in reading, writing, basic math and

admission to the program according to the number of clinical spots available.
BEFORE YOU MAKE YOUR DECISION TO APPLY FOR ADMISSION, YOU SHOULD CONSIDER THE
FOLLOWING:
1. Can you achieve the 25th percentile level in each of the seven categories of the PSB test? Many appli-
cants have difficulty with the science section. We strongly recommend that you take BIO 065 Life
Science and CHM 061 Chemistry and ANP 101. Taking ANP 102 is recommended. Science is not the
only category in which applicants do not achieve the 25th percentile level.
2. If you are accepted into the program can you maintain a "C" average in each of the courses? Can you
carry a load of 19 to 22 credits in some semesters?
According to the rules and regulations of the Indiana State Board of Nursing, a student must pass each
course with a grade of "C" or better to graduate and to be eligible for licensure in Indiana. The pro-
gram must be completed within two years of admission to the program.
The failure of two program course(s) will deny the student the right to continue in the program, and the
student will be withdrawn. A student may repeat a failed program course one time. A failure of a sec-
ond program course will result in withdrawal from the program.
An exception to the above paragraph: PNU 121 Introduction to Nursing I; PNU 122 Introduction to
Nursing n. A student must make a "C" or better in each of the above courses and/or PNU 123
Pharmacology before progressing to the next semester.
130
PNU 121 Introduction to Nursing I must be passed with a "C" or better to progress to PNU 122
Introduction to Nursing II. A student must make a "C" or better in each of the above courses and/or
PNU 123 Pharmacology before progressing to the next semester.
Note: If one "Care of the Adult" course is failed, a student cannot progress to the next "Care of the
Adult" course within that semester.
All Ivy Tech State College policies concerning incomplete grades and academic probation will be fol-
lowed. A 2.0 GPA in regular program courses must be maintained in order to progress each semester.
What are your work requirements and family commitments? The program typically requires your atten-
dance between 30-40 hours per week. You must allow for study time to prepare for all courses in order
to maintain your academic average to remain in the program.
Do you have adequate transportation to get to the clinical assignments as well as to the college for your
courses?
Do you have adequate child care?
These are specific attendance requirements for the program. There are stringent rules of allowable
absences. Attendance problems can lead to dismissal from the program during any semester.

Radiologic Technology
The Radiologic Technologist is someone who specializes in using x-rays to create images of
the body. The radiographs that are produced by the radiographer enable the doctor to diagnose
the patient for disease, fractures, or any irregularities. Therefore, a radiographer must be a
professional who is skilled in the art and science of radiography and is able to apply scientific
knowledge, problem-solving techniques, and use of high tech equipment, while providing
quality patient care. Technologists are in demand in hospitals, clinics, physicians and dentists'
offices, federal and state agencies, industry, and certain education institutions.
This program includes courses such as patient care, radiographic technique, positioning,
radiation exposure, radiation protection, physics, pathology and ethics, (complete list in this
section) Clinical practice and supplemental instruction are provided in accredited sites. Upon
completion of this program, graduates are eligible to take the American Registry Examination
given by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists.
The Radiologic Technology Program is a full-time program. Once accepted students will
rotate to the clinical sites and have didactic instruction at Ivy Tech State College.
For some health programs, you may not be eligible to be licensed or certified if you have been
convicted of a felony.
Average Salary
In central Indiana $25,000 to $39,000 per year depending on years of experience and
specialty.
Program Goals
The program goals of the Ivy Tech State College Radiologic Technology Program are to:
1 . Educate students to perform radiology exams using the ALARA principle.
2. Provide educational experiences with various procedures adapted for age-specific patients.
3. Prepare students to be eligible to write the National Registry of Radiologic Technologist
exam.
4. Examine student competency level to ensure improvement as program progresses.
5. Promote professionalism and continuing education throughout the program.

Surgical Technology
The surgical technologist is a highly-skilled member of the surgical team, qualified by didactic and
clinical education to provide safe and efficient care to the patient in the operating room. The didactic
education consists of courses in anatomy and physiology, microbiology, pharmacology, medical law
and ethics, surgical techniques, and surgical procedures. Closely supervised clinical education is pro-
vided in local area hospitals.
The surgical technologist actively participates in surgery by performing scrub and/or circulating duties
which include: passing instruments and supplies to the surgical team members, preparing and position-
ing the patient, operating equipment, assisting the anesthesiologist, and keeping accurate records.
Students are required to complete foundation courses prior to the clinical education. The program is
two calendar years in length, requiring 67 credits leading to an Associate of Applied Science degree.
The program is accredited by the Committee on Allied Health Education Accreditation with the Joint
Review Committee on Education for Surgical Technologists. The full-time program begins during the
fall semester each year and includes the spring semester and an 11 -week summer session. The general
education courses can be started any semester. Graduates receive an Associate of Applied Science
degree. Upon completion of the program, students are eligible to take the National Certification Exam
for Surgical Technologists.
The following facilities have collaborated with the college as clinical sites for practical work experi-
ences required in the program: Community East Hospital, St. Vincent's Hospital and Health Care
Center, Community North, St. Vincent-Carmel, Hancock Memorial Hospital, Indiana Surgery Center
East - St. Francis Hospital, Westview Hospital, and Wishard Hospital.
The starting salary is $10.50 to $13 per hour in hospitals and can increase up to 25
percent due to shift differentials.

Associate of Applied Science - Admission Requirements
A Certified Surgical Technologist (CST) is a member of the surgical team of surgeons, anesthesiolo-
gists and certified registered nurse anesthetists, registered nurses, and other surgical personnel in
delivering patient care and assuming appropriate responsibilities before, during, and after surgery.
A surgical technologist acts as the sterile person or "scrub," who handles sterile instruments, supplies,
equipment, medications, solutions, and many other sterile devices necessary during surgical proce-
dure. The surgical technologist may also act as the unsterile person or "circulator," who obtains addi-
tional instruments and supplies while the operation is in progress.
Graduates of accredited programs are eligible to take a national certification exam. Satisfactory per-
formance on the exam allows the surgical technologist to earn professional credentials and certifica-
tion, and thus become a CST, or Certified Surgical Technologist. Certification is maintained by accru-
ing 80 contact hours of approved continuing education in a consecutive six-year period.
Work conditions
Surgical technologists work in clean, well-lighted, cool environments in a confined area of the hospi-
tal or other institutions. They need physical stamina in order to work under stressful conditions. Some
surgical procedures last for several hours. An excellent job attendance record is necessary in order to
become a responsible member of the surgical team.
Employment
Many surgical technologists are employed in hospital operating rooms, delivery rooms, cast rooms,
emergency departments, ambulatory care areas, and central supply departments. Some serve in man-
agement roles in surgical services departments. In the private scrub role, they are employed directly
by surgeons, while others work as first/surgical assistants. They are utilized in clinics and surgicen-
ters; in ophthalmologists, physicians, and dentists offices; and in home health care. Some may also be
licensed practical nurses.
Starting pay range
Average starting pay is $10.50 to $13 per hour. Additional differential is possible depending upon
shift hours and on-call hours worked.
